This time visit, i went to Pantai Indah Kapuk where famous by many spot for food hunting. During weekday, this area was not crowded as the weekend. Usually we need to take a quite time looking for parking space during end of week.

I was not alone, this time i went here with some friends from  Pergi Kuliner. It is an app that has looking for restaurant feature in some of town in Indonesia. This app sure does helps me to find any information about restaurant and how are people share their experienced during their diningmoment.

We visited the Bienvenue, the exclusive restaurant with lounge & bar concept. The interior is looks classy and many photo frame in different shape hanging on wall also there's a huge and tall rack fulled by many kind of wines.

They do offering the exclusive ambiance, and so are the foods too. During dinner time, this restaurant was quite crowded especially there's some customer celebrating something.

In here is available western or asian food. We can tell, the menu is not so much, but quite many variant to pick, like beef, pork, chicken or fish. Don't forget, they also have some italian pasta. But we were there to try their main signature menu only, like Tender Beef Chunk Ribs.

Served on huge wooden plate with huge slice of ribs topped on mashed potato and served along with some of vegetables aside. It has quite tasty seasoning and nice texture. We sure did enjoyed it especially we were starved during that evening. Other than beef ribs, there is a Stewed Pork with Butter Rice served in really huge portion.

But i can say, with such a small plate and a lot of rice, made the presentation sure doesn't looks beautiful. But it is really tasty even tastier than beef ribs. The butter rice also good and creamy. Other than grilled meat, they also offering some kind of Asian dishes. But unfortunately, there's an inconsistent of flavor here. 

Even the menu i choose, Sous de Vide John Dory with such a name, i think dory is too dry and under seasoning including the risotto taste just fine. I may recommended you to try the tapas, Chicken Popcorn served in beautiful golden brown. It has crunchy texture and tasty especially dip in spicy sambal.

Don't forget we also try some of dessert after done the main course. I just get another disappointment here with these. They sure offer interesting menu, there are creme brulee, panna cotta and other desserts. 

But turns out, mostly does not taste really good, under my expectation. Where somehow i taste too sweet like covered up my mouth and texture like the panna cotta is too watery, not firm enough. For such an exclusive restaurant i may say it is unfortunately less consistent taste of food could be a nightmare. 

They do offering the comfortable place and ambiance, also good service. I think it would be much better if they do served food with good quality of taste especially they doing in those high market standard.
